Good luck with that Ed. I’m bang on but it will go to the wire.

Thanks for the welcome back GG your holiday sounded fab. Well done FF I love a bit of drizzle when it’s not cold. Well done Steve and enjoy your rest day HS.

Ed and LL: I'm rooting for you. Think you'll both be, just about, OK.

I was working from home yesterday. Old house, super drafty and to careful (mean) to put the heating on. I was so cold couldnt contemplate a post run shower in our icy bathroom so treadmill at the gym to get warm and use their shower.

Tues and Wed 2 x 4 miles making ytd: 1000.8.

Really must get into using the full functionality of this site.

Well done FF, it seems that you have your mojo back.😃

GG, my new trainers arrived this morning. I've been wearing them around the house and they seem ok. I'm not so sure about the raised tab at the back. They were popular a few years ago, but then 'disappeared'.

Thanks LL, I don't really rest on rest days, as I tend to catch up with odd jobs etc.

Donnie1, well done for Tuesdays and Wednesdays 2 x 4 miles, taking you over the 1000 miles target.

Great and well done on crossing the line Donnie1. Nice relaxed miles til the year's end now?! Indeed .. you'll find the functions on Fetch a boon when it comes to keeping track of your miles etc. Easy peasy to use.
Being bang on is great too LL. I know it can be a bit tight around Christmas and the holiday period so hopefully you can still manage to hit 1000.

Hope the new shoes are good hs. I wonder why heel tabs have extended when it was always thought to aggravate the Achilles and we were often advised to cut them down!
Really pleased that you ventured out in the inclement weather FF and did a decent distance.

I find the smell of weed out on the streets, especially coming from drivers, irritating. Its use used to be purely recreational and generally in the home/houses where it didn't impact on anyone else. That's quite aside from its illegality. I even smell it at 6am in the early mornings!
5k on dark roads this morning, trails would have been saturated after yesterday's downpours. Tomorrow is looking nasty.

Well done @Donnie1! For various reasons my ten miler yesterday did not pan out leaving me very rungry! Was going to go for a late one but the heavens opened and the last episode of Arcane S2 was too tempting...

Thanks Steve, the grand old age of 79.

I haven't run in the new trainers yet, but have walked around in them indoors. I'm bit apprehensive about the hill tabs.

I'm meeting up with my sister and three running friends for a pub lunch at 12.30. My sister is driving, so I will be able to have a pint 🍺. I rarely drink these days, 40 years since I left Liverpool, but just on special occasions now 😃

Happy Birthday HS! Hope you are having a great day.

Well done on crossing the line Donnie. Good luck ED.

Stick your targets in for next year Donnie and you won't need to count it all.

Thanks to the storm it's looking like I will have to wait another week till my 100th :-(. I will be running tomorrow morning regardless.
